Archives: Brounoff Music Room Guest Book

Pharmacist Mate 3rd Class and Dallas Symphony Orchestra violinist ZelmanBrounoff established a music listening room at Naval Hospital ShoemakerCA during World War II, and kept a log of people who came by to listen(and to perform) with their comments of appreciation. The book acts as acommentary on the value of "music therapy". A small number ofphotographs of Hospital officers are tipped in. Brounhoff was a violinist with the DSO from 1926 until his retirement as concert master emeritus in 1983.
